There's a new color shade on the outfield walls of Ripken Stadium, home of the Aberdeen IronBirds, the Baltimore Orioles' short-season affiliate.

Call it "Ripken Orange," named after Cal Ripken, the Orioles' Hall of Fame shortstop.

Today, Ripken Baseball, the sports and entertainment company that runs the facility, completed its installation of the orange outfield wall upgrade.

Promats Athletics, a leading manufacturer of protective pads in baseball, completed the upgrade, covering the installation of 390 pads that blend Ripken Orange with black pads over the backstop wall, dugouts and batter's eye in center field.
